AHA! You said it! The rule does NOT say that the player has to be prevented from shooting AND passing the ball. It says shooting OR passing the ball. The case play is simply addressing a player that jumps and tries to shoot OR pass, not necessarily both. As Bob Jenkins said, the jump ball occurs immediately. I agree with him and the case book.
